SUBMIT: Your Best Bird's Eye View Photo by October 3rd. WIN: Flexible Gorillapod Tripod

Dec 2, 2011 11:21 PM

Giveaway Tuesdays has officially ended! But don't sweat it, WonderHowTo has another World that's taken its place. Every Tuesday, Phone Snap! invites you to show off your cell phone photography skills.

Submit your best shot to our weekly competition for a chance to win an awesome prize. Phoneographers only—both Android and iPhone welcome! Check it out now.

For this week's Giveaway Tuesday, we challenge you to capture an extreme point of view: high-angle or bird's eye. Take it above from an angle, or directly looking down. Climb a tree, or dare to climb a building. But please, don't dangle your feet over the edge, as shown below in the amazing photo i'll make ya famous by Roof Topper of photography site 500px.

To capture an interesting high angle shot, you don't necessarily have to travel to great heights. High angle simply means above eyeline, so get creative! Stand on a chair or the stairs, aim out a window, or jump on your bed.

ENTER TO WIN
